NADIA.By the time the cab pulled away from Aurelia Medical Institute, my hands had gone cold around my phone.The cab driver had soft jazz playing under the low hum of traffic. I barely heard it because I sat in the back of it doing the math on my own ruin and replaying all the bad decisions I made on impulse. Like the text I sent to Jeremy. I couldn't stop wondering if I had been too rash. I mean... He was going to tell Liam about Dad, right?The tiny voice in my head kept telling me I did the right thing and that it was just a contract that binds my time to my boss. But there was another voice, a tinier one, that kept telling me there was more to that contract than meets the eye.Jeremy hadn't written anything about wanting sex with me. I mean, not explicitly. But, God, I knew somehow, and someday, he would toe that line. And me signing the contract gave him every single right he would need by that time.My heart wouldn't stop thudding in my chest at the thought of that.But, maybe

NADIA.I swallowed a dry lump as I stared at him, speechless."The nights don't count down while you fight me," he went on, ignoring whatever was running through my head. "You had sixty yesterday.

But at the same time, there was a flash of relief that moved through me at the thought of never having to let Liam touch me. But the idea of Jeremy being the one enforcing it was absurd.I looke

NADIA.The woman in the mirror wasn't me.That was my first thought when the makeup artist Jeremy had called finally stepped back and let me see. The dress was black and did the kind of work that looked effortless and cost a fortune — cut close, cut clean, the sort of thing that made a body look like a decision men would make and bear the consequences later.My hair had been pulled away from my face in soft waves that fell down my back, and my mouth was painted a deep red that made me feel confident.I had not dressed like this in a long time. With Liam, I dressed safe.
